I took a quick tour through the world of wikis and found myself wishing I had several days to look around at all the websites. Two of my discoveries really interested me: USC Aiken Gregg Graniteville Library [It's a United States Federal Depository Library-wow!] and the University of Calgary Wiki [It included a beautiful aerial picture of the campus in the summer--how inviting is that?]
Here are a few of the wiki applications I found that work well in libraries: Updating of Subject Guides (gives librarians help/updates occur more frequently), Annotating the catalog (user reviews can help other patrons find books meeting their specific needs), Community Wiki (helps libraries become physical hubs of the community).
